Hey!(Sorry bear with me i'm a newbie )
So, a while back i rooted my phone using Ping-pong root and after a while i un-rooted it, Using theSuperSu unroot function.After,that whenever i got an OTA update to 5.1.1 and tried to install it the phone failed to do it and asked me to use smart switch.
I did as it told me to and tried upgrading from smart switch.Even smart switch tried and failed to update the firmware and now i'm stuck with a caution screen saying "An error has occurred while updating the device software.Use emergency recovery function in the smart switch PC software".
I've tried doing that a several time and haven't had any luck.Then, i tried flashing the stock firmware using odin,It kept failing.
Please help!I'm going MAD!
Thanks in advance

Hi.
i have been on every thread i found with the same kind of title, or that the search engine found but i cant relate to those problems since everyone has been fiddling with their phones in order to get this message.
i was updating my samsung xcover vith kies when the update failed (due to bad cable) now i get the error message on my phone
"Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in kies & try again"
i read somewhere that this is "download mode" but im not shure and i dont really know what to do here.
kies wont connect with the phone and the phone wont appear in the recovery tool.
any help would be great!
The phone i have is a Galaxy Xcover with stock firmware

flash your phone back to the stock rom that the phone came with that is the way i went with my problem and it worked.
Hi,
Knock on is not working on my LG g2 from past 2 days. I tried factory reset knock on/off toggle, device test, calibrate sensors. Finally I decided to return the phone but I need to unroot it for that.
As I cannot follow the usual process because my phone is not recognized in download mode via USB (both pc/linux) I tried installing a stock rom(80020k) and then uninstall the root. also I replaced the rtc files and the I tried to update the phone to D80020u but it fails with error saying device is suspected of rooting.
I became over smart and flashed a stock recovery which won't function.
No root, No recovery now. Tried rooting with ioroot25 doesn't work because it requires a functional stock recovery.
Any help/suggestions that can get me back to stock?
Thanks.

i have tried to root my phone, then got error message about su has stopped, so i tried following directions to unroot, i have downloaded several stock firmwares, 1 worked and brought my phone back to OS 4.1.1, i thought it was fixed and unrooted, so i did software update, and now stuck on power up, i have tried to go back and download the 4.1.1 back on it with no success, i cant even get in recovery mode. i have tried kies, and that doesnt work, have searched and nothing is helping, or spending hours downloading stock firmware that does not work, it will either fail, and 2 of them do say pass, but phone still locked on power up. any help would def be appreciated

Keep in mind Odin will usually fail if Kies is running. End all kies processes in you pc's task manager.
Good luck!
Thank you. Thread closed.

Hi guys,
I have a galaxy S4, I9505 bought from Singapore. I accidentally did a factory reset on my phone. Everything was lost. As I wanted to get back my lost contacts, I bought this data recovery software called mobisaver from easeUS.
In order for the mobisaver software to work, I had to root my phone. As I am a novice to this, I asked the customer service how to root my s4 and they asked me to download Kingo root and use it.
So I downloaded kingo root and used it to root my phone. It showed success on the Kingo root software. But my s4 is now stuck in boot loop. Damn! So i googled and tried my best how to solve it myself. I can go into recovery mode, I cleared cache, did factory reset again, but still stuck in boot loop.
I can go into download mode. I downloaded Kies, but kies gave me this error "GT-I9505 does not support initializing kies".
I read that I must use Odin but if I used the wrong firmware then my phone could get bricked. And I am a complete novice at this. Some guys from a local forum suggested asking xdadevelopers for help. So here I am. I only wanted to root my phone because it was a requirement for the data recovery software to work. And now I am stuck!
Please help me save my s4! Thank you very much!!!
